>>> karl rove made a fool of himself on fox, bush's brain is back in action. rove and dick morris were benched by fox brass after being completely wrong about the 2012 election. on monday, the fox straight news show was granted special permission to put mr. rove back on the air. rove and joe trippy were asked to give their recommendation on the fiscal cliff.

>> make believe you want to get to the compromise.

>> let's cap it, itemize deductions. if you cap it at $25,000, tax rates 20%, plus kill the alternative minimum tax forever and still have $1.3 trillion in revenue. or if you do it at $50,000 cap, it gives you $800 billion.

>> oh, yes, rove is still the master of make believe. but he still must be under the impression that romney won the election. there's no way president obama and the democrats are going to lower tax rates by 20%. i've got to cut him some slack, though, it's been almost a month since he's had the opportunity to lie in public. as for dick morris , he's found something to do during his fox exile. ladies and gentlemen , the dick morris launch alert.

>> don't give up. that's what we'll talk about today. there's a lot that we can do. there's a lot that we have to do in order to save this country of ours.

>> and i am so glad to see dick morris is still on his toes. next, dick cheney is up to his old tricks, attacking u.s. foreign policy and advocating for endless war . colonel lawrence wilkerson will be here to weigh
